Renewable energy projects are taking off around the world, and many fundamentally require a way to record a ledger of activities and transactions between the varied participants – e.g. residential customers wishing to sell excess generated renewable energy back to the grid, regulators seeking to monitor and maintain energy quality, and local utilities interested in aggregating customers into ‘virtual power plants’.

Based on a real project that is currently underway, this week’s session will feature an interactive demo designed to immerse participants in the world of energy trading with Blockchain, and introduce a future in which energy can power a dynamic marketplace for turning megawatts into megabucks (or virtually anything else!).
